Classroom training
Classroom training is conducted virtually or in person by a trainer utilizing a detailed training plan. In a face-to-face setting, we ensure excellent knowledge transfer from our experts to the participants. This is achieved through explaining content in detail, answering specific questions, highlighting recent case studies and using relevant examples.
Practical training
Practical training is a method that contains hands-on technical training at a Voith production site or at the customer’s site. Thanks to training under real conditions, participants have the opportunity to learn effectively.
Apprenticeship training
An apprenticeship training is usually given to young technical staff who are trained by several experts for a longer period of time. As trainers can pass on their knowledge, this training type is especially preferred by our trainers.
Mentoring training
Mentoring involves a consultant or supervisor guiding the technical staff member for a certain period of time. The mentor is an experienced expert who offers support and gives feedback on the tasks and processes performed by the trainees.
